He is the recipient of the One World Media Award in 2009 and recognized as Human Rights Defender of the Year in Palestine in 2010 by the United Nations.

UN Special Rapporteurs reported that Amro had been arrested and detained by Israel more than 20 times in the year 2012 alone. Amro was featured in Amnesty International’s global Write for Rights campaign in 2017 to support him through his trial in Israeli military court. In winter 2021, Amro was convicted on six charges related to his community activism, including three counts of participating in a protest without a permit.” The trial was criticized by prominent human rights organizations, international lawmakers and independent UN experts.
